The interview was exactly what you'd expect based on other experiences on here. Started off with just some small talk before the interviewer introduced himself and talked about his history and how he ended up doing interviews. The interviewer was a retired captain from Skywest. I introduced myself, then we got rolling with verifying paperwork. I needed to resubmit some things, like my CFI, since it expired between now and the original application date in January. We talked about my logbook, total time, PIC, multi-engine, night, instrument while in the actual airplane, 30/60/90 day, and 12-month flight times. Actual order after this was different, I'm just jotting down things I remember going over. Coffin corner, mach tuck, swept wing advantages and disadvantages, where does a swept wing stall at, how do we maintain roll...

Great Experience. Laid back, but very, very thorough - which i liked. Started with "housekeeping" Items, Tell about yourself, about the airline, etc. Then heavy technical, CRM, scenario, etc. At the end was told exceptional candidate, low 30/60/90 totals may hurt, but he doesn't make the decision. Really positive experience. Prepare well and it will be almost... -

Interview was very straight forward. Heavily scenario based with jepp charts. Overall great experience. Interview lasted about 2hrs. HR section was about 30 minutes, technical was 1 hr, and CRM was about 30 minutes. I had one person conduct the interview while a 20 year captain observed. Know IFR regulations, High altitude aerodynamics, high bypass turbofan engines, went over weather, TS, microburst, TAF, METAR, etc. No ops specs or... -

Started off with intros, moved into a few TMAATs. Tech was all that is covered in this guide (high-bypass turbo fan engine, swept wing advantages and disadvantages and theory, departure apt diagram, IFR alt mins, jep plate breifings, emergency and diversion as captain, etc) Very straight forward interview, was not surprised with any questions that weren't on this guide. Felt very prepared and interview went very well it... -

I recently used AviationInterview.com to prepare for my interview, and honestly, it helped a lot, which made me feel much more prepared and confident going into the interview. The interview started with reading METARs and TAFs, then moved into weather related questions. After that, we covered aerodynamics, basic jet engine concepts and design, and high-altitude operations. Overall, the technical topics were very similar to what I had studied on the website. We ended it with a CRM scenerio... -

Interview was identical to everything on here. I had a FO from Boise. Super nice laid back guy. Started with basic stuff such as docs, flight times, HR/dot questions. Then he asked about myself. Most memorable flight. Then went straight to technical. Airpot signage, Jepp charts, wx, then went on to Jet stuff, swept wings, high alt stuff, jet engines, engine start issues, then asked me about the king air I fly for my systems questions. Maybe a couple more Im forgetting, then CRM scenario.... -

My interviewer was extremely relaxed but thorough. He asked many questions that were right from the aviationinterviews.com gouge. The technical questions for my flying experience were not that deep, they focused on big picture and my ability to articulate the point clearly. I feel the interview went exceptionally well. He sort of slipped at the end and basically told me to expect the offer in two weeks. I wish you all the best of luck, SkyWest is moving and hiring right... -

Interview was nothing else more than a conversation. few HR questions: Introduce yourself, make sure to have a story to tell on how you got into aviation. biggest success and biggest failure. from there we moved into airport signage, airport diagrams, STARs, SIDs and approach plates. you will talk about airspeed restrictions altitude restrictions, holding speeds. in my case they were not direct questions but more of a scenario. Then after that he presented a scenario. I was the captain of a...
